Another statement that it's a scam. Got any evidence this time as to who is scamming who? Why are they doing it? Are the scammers making money? Who are they making money from?

Yep, but nothing to do with the "scam". It's another benefit of Brexit.

Our train line rails used to last for 30 years plus even on the main lines. The companies now import Chinese steel for the rails which last for half of that time.
But everyone wants cheap nowadays and it is cheap.

Haha.
I would say that it's moronic to link three issues in one thread that are all completely different.
Unless of course, all you're interested in doing is manufacturing anger for the sake of it?
Can you point me in the direction of that please. I thought the rolling mills were in Scunthorpe & Workington. Oh yes, we also operate a lot more trains going much faster than we used to.

There is still a blast furnace in Scunthorpe, the trouble is it produces low grade steel, the money is in Vacuum Arc Remelted steel which is much stronger and therefore lighter and can be used in automotive and aerospace applications. It's also made from scrap steel so it's recycling(we actually import scrap to Bolton) to make this stuff, there is supposed to be one of these being built in Port Talbot next year.

What an incredibly irresponsible thing to say, that would close the Midland Main Line for a week while it was investigated, reported on and repairs to the damaged fence completed
Sheeesh!
To be fair it all went tits up when China and India joined the EU

I read it a good few years back now. The last time they were talking about closing the steelworks.
